Detail 01
18 feet
Enough to walk out front on a loud stage. Long unbalanced runs also soften the very top end slightly.

MogamiGold Series Instrument Cable 18 ft.

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
An 18-foot 1/4-inch instrument cable for guitar or bass. Stage-length, priced as a buy-once cable rather than a spare.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage use where a 10-foot cable pins you to the amp
- Players who keep replacing cables that fail mid-set
- Studio runs from the live room to an amp
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Short pedal-to-pedal patching, where 18 feet becomes a coil of clutter
- Balanced line gear — this is an unbalanced instrument cable
- Anyone who just needs a working cable and nothing more
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Instrument cable, not line or speaker
Carries a high-impedance pickup signal. It won't reject hum the way a balanced cable does over distance.
Detail 03
1/4-inch plugs both ends
Mates with guitars, basses, pedals and amp inputs. Nothing XLR, nothing 3.5 mm.
Detail 04
Black jacket
Vanishes on a dark stage, which also means it vanishes into every other black cable in the bag.
Detail 05
$99.95 for a single cable
Roughly ten times a basic lead. Sensible if it survives years of gigs, excessive if it lives behind a desk.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01One cable, not a pair — a backup or second rig means buying twice
- 02Coil it over-under; the plug end is where cables die
- 0318 feet is more than a seated home player will ever uncoil
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is 18 ft too long for playing at home?
Usually, yes. At home you end up coiling most of it. 18 feet earns its length on stage, where you need to move away from the amp.
02Can I use this between my amp head and speaker cabinet?
No. Instrument cable is not built to carry amplifier output to a speaker. Use a dedicated speaker cable for that connection.
03Will it work with pedals?
Yes. It's a standard 1/4-inch instrument cable, so it plugs into any pedal input or output. For linking pedals a few inches apart, use short patch cables instead.
04Is it worth $100 when a cable is $20?
Depends on use. Both pass signal. The case for this one is construction and lasting through years of plugging, unplugging and being stepped on.
